Chapter 100: Signing Successfully

Lin Mu nodded, smiled and said, "Yes." ”

After a momentary gaffe, Blade reverted to his previous appearance.

I tidied up my clothes, took a sip of the tea on the coffee table, and calmed down my mood.

Then he said, "Do you know why I lost my temper just now?" ”

Lin Mu shrugged, "I don't mind listening to what you want to say. ”

"As early as a few years ago, we were already thinking about operating the copyright of novels, and it was our dream to put good novels on the big screen or TV station."

"For this reason, a few of my friends and I ran all over the major film and television entertainment companies with those good works at the beginning, entrusted the relationship, and handed the book to them through the back door, hoping to adapt it into a TV series or movie.

But obviously we failed, and at the very beginning, there will be companies that can be optimistic about the script, and it feels like it should be adaptable, and it should be able to increase the ratings, so there are still a few companies that have bought a novel or two.

I took it out and adapted it into a TV series and then broadcast it on TV, but when the results came out, they were disappointed, the ratings were not bad at first, but it was miserable later, and there was a lot of scolding on the Internet, which can be said to be a lot, so from now on, no one dares to adapt the novel anymore.

No matter how hard we tried, it didn't work, and the novel lost what he was most profitable and the most famous. ”

Lin Mu nodded slightly, what Bao Jianfeng said was indeed good, he himself had learned about these, and this was the case.

"So would Mr. Lin be willing to cooperate with me?"

"What is the content of the collaboration?"

"I believe Mr. Lin should know that my last movie was adapted from a novel, although it was a novel written by myself, but it is also a novel, isn't it?"

"So, if I think, can I cooperate with the starting point for a long time, and if I want to make a TV series or movie in the future, if I want to make a script, I can buy a novel adaptation of the starting point."

"If we want to buy one or two copies, we will definitely agree, so what is the benefit of signing this contract, or let's work together?"

Lin Mu shrugged, his heart was cold, knowing that if he didn't shake and reveal a little good thing today, he would definitely not be able to pass the test.

"In the last movie, I made a lot of money, about 6000w, and now that so much time has passed, my next drama wants to start filming, and I, I fell in love with a novel and wanted to adapt it."

After speaking, Lin Mu stared at Bao Jianfeng's eyes, and Bao Jianfeng was not to be outdone, looked at Lin Mu and said, "If that's all, I can directly sell you the adaptation rights of this novel." ”

"Of course, it's not just that, I mentioned this to my professors when I was in college."

Speaking of this, Lin Mu looked a little relaxed, and said with Erlang's legs half-lying on the sofa.

"I know more about the adaptation of the novel than you, more than you, and even more than you."

"Do you believe that novels can be adapted into games, TV series, movies, manga, audio novels, or even anime?"

"I believe it is possible, I call this kind of operation IP, and I don't want to say too much about IP, I just want Mr. Lin to remember the word IP."

"As early as before, when I raised this topic, I had asked someone to buy a lot of book adaptation rights for the starting point, and now I have more than a dozen good novels in my hands, such as The Legend of Zhen Huan, Three Lives and Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, Song in the Clouds, Flower Thousand Bones and so on."

"I can put these on the big screen, and I can say that in this world, only I have the strength to put these works on the big screen so far."

"So why am I doing this, of course it's for the sake of profit, if Mr. Lin still doesn't understand, then we don't have to talk about it anymore."

"I heard that it seems that the starting point didn't pay much attention to the film and television adaptation rights after that, and even when the contract was signed, some famous artists didn't hand over the film and television adaptation rights to the starting point."

"I'm going to contact them separately if I can't talk about it, and take all the adaptation rights in their hands, Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

Lin Mu smiled and looked at Bao Jianfeng and said.

Bao Jianfeng was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "How do you want to cooperate?" ”

"It's very simple, sign a contract with me, and I must be responsible for all the adaptations of all works in the future, of course, this is what I thought before."

"Now, if I succeed in the IP operation in the future, the adaptation right of the novel will inevitably become popular, so I want to have priority under the same conditions if all the works are adapted from the starting point in the future."

"In other words, if a company wants to buy the rights to adapt a book, I have the right of first refusal if I make the same bid as that company."

……

"So what benefits can our company get?"

"Hehe, Mr. Lin, don't pretend, I successfully adapted, your company won't take a share of the author's income? I succeeded in adapting it, and the audience won't remember that the work went out with you? ”

"Even if I only have the right to adapt film and television, in the future, those novels will be adapted into anime, comics, games, etc., not all of them are in your hands, just with how much benefit this one can bring to the starting point, Mr. Lin should know better than me."

"Well, you win."

"But there is another question, how do you convince me that only you have the ability to adapt successfully, if your adaptation is not successful, then the contract is signed is our loss, what if someone else succeeds in adapting in the future?"

"This is very simple, we sign the contract, the effective date is clear on the contract, and the adaptation I shoot will be on the TV station, and it will successfully reach the level of general TV dramas."

"This positioning should also be clearly written, the positioning level is calculated based on the average ratings of the TV series at that time, if I reach it, the contract will take effect, and if it is not reached, the contract will be automatically invalidated."

"What does Mr. Lin think of this?"

"Okay, that's it."

Bao Jianfeng slapped the table and decided directly.

He immediately took out the phone and called his own secretary, explained the detailed terms of the contract, and then asked the other side to print out the contract immediately and bring it over.

After finishing speaking, he talked and laughed with Lin Mu inside, and No. 4 did not have the feeling of fighting and fighting for each other and the air solidifying before.

It looks like two old friends who have seen each other late.

Needless to say, the two signed the contract, and they were all happy.
